The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

On the night of the naval port, the waves shook the battleship gently. The young sailors rested their heads on the waves and couldn't sleep at night!

The hateful Chinese don't rest. They fight at night, relying on the light of the flares above their heads, and are familiar with the trend and hydrology. Their 210 heavy artillery bombarded the anchorage of the military port continuously, and some shells even hit the shore.

The roar of the giant cannon shook the sea, making it difficult for the poet to fall asleep.

Only then did Viscount Leo Grozny understand why many aristocratic officers smeared thick powder on their faces during meetings during the day. It turned out that they wanted to cover up the thick dark circles on their faces, otherwise they would lose their noble dignity!

But his condition is fine, his resting place is in the villa on the shore, separated from the anchorage, and he can still fall asleep despite the noise.

The journey was hard, and during the day he followed the admiral to inspect the ships, and he was exhausted. He and his entourage were very tired, and fell asleep immediately after seeing the bed.

Admiral Don Aznar Antonio was resting in another villa not far away. At that time, the two greeted each other "good night" and entered the villa respectively.

No matter how shrewd Viscount Ren Leo Grozny is, he doesn't know the naval practice. Once there is a major operation, the admiral and the supervising army should board the ship and prepare, and cannot rest on the shore.

The reason why Don Aznar Antonio did not do this was, of course, for his convenience.

When it was late at night, small boats were lowered from the battleships, carrying their respective officers and rowing to the shore.

They got hints during the day, made an appointment at night, drove quietly, and went ashore quietly.

In a warehouse on the shore, officers arrived one after another, basically senior officials of the fleet, commanders of various squadrons and captains of large ships, etc. After entering the warehouse, they didn't say much, just waiting there.

They are so mysterious, they all know that this is the admiral who wants to avoid the supervising army and give them confidential information face to face.

Soon, a group of people came out from the warehouse, and they surrounded Admiral Don Aznar Antonio. Someone called the officers and told the admiral, "Everyone is here!"

The admiral looked around and saw the burning eyes of the officers looking at him, all waiting for his instructions, and he said bluntly, "Tomorrow we will fight without defeat!"

One sentence made all the officers depressed, and the little hope before was gone.

"We are in such a state that we can't fight a war, and the opponent has four super battleships, and many first-class and second-class battleships. Half of their eighty battleships are large ships. It is impossible for us to win! ’ asserted the Admiral.

At this moment, no matter how stubborn the naval officers are, they all admit that this is a fact. In naval operations, the odds of winning are often on the side of the big ship. God's army, how can you beat them.

Some weak-willed fellows even have an outrageous idea: Emperor = God!

Otherwise, how to explain his miraculous rise and always winning battles?

"If we fight, it doesn't count if we fail, and we may lose our lives. Therefore, I have an idea, and I will tell you to listen to it!"

The admiral spoke out his plan, and everyone looked at each other in dismay.

"What do you think, gentlemen?" asked the admiral, his face clouded by the light from the torches lit on the warehouse wall.

The officers were taken aback, only to realize that at some point, they were surrounded by the general's guards, holding glaring Turkish scimitars, with their fingers on the triggers of short blunderbuss or double-barreled short-barreled shotguns, staring intently at them. them.

Rear Admiral Don Jose Torres, the captain of the first-class battleship "Immaculate Conception" in the fleet, has always been the admiral's confidant. He was the first to stand up and agree: "My lord is to protect our lives, to save our fleet. The lower officials think that this is a good strategy!"

"Yes!" The atmosphere was opened, and more and more officers thought it was very good.

"I think so!" The fleet's second-in-command, Vice Admiral Don Harvey Casillas, agreed, marking the unanimous approval of the admiral's strategy.

"Very good!" Don Aznar Antonio nodded in satisfaction and said, "Don't worry, everyone, I will take care of everything, and you can put the responsibility on me!"

The commander was so forceful, so all the officers agreed to follow the plan.

Early the next morning, the port got up and the bugle sounded, and the entire military port was busy.

It is not easy for the fleet to go out of the port. If there is wind, it is fine. If there is no wind, they will be dragged out of the anchorage one by one. Of course, they can also sail by themselves, but it is not as fast as dragging them into the channel early with a galley.

Using a high-powered lens to see the movement of the Spaniards, the South China Fleet also blew the horn to assemble.

They have a total of 82 battleships, including four super battleships "Ying Huo Xing", "Zhen Xing", "Taibai Xing" and "Chen Xing". Commanded by four admirals, among them Xiao Changrong was promoted to the admiral of the Imperial Navy due to his meritorious service. He took command of the "Taibaixing" and replaced the "half-human" Cheng Yu.

There are also thirty-six battleships of the first or second rank and forty-two battleships of the third rank. They are strong and powerful, and they are under the command of Yan Zhang. They are gearing up and waiting to send the Spaniards to meet their Poseidon.

"The Spaniards really have seeds!" Marshal Siresma on the "Yinghuoxing" couldn't help but praise the Spaniards when he saw the first Spanish battleship leaving port.

He immediately ordered the fleet to watch the enemy ships leave the port and not attack without orders.

Let the Spanish fleet leave the port completely, and everyone will have a good time.

Therefore, Spanish battleships filed out, a total of sixty-eight battleships, including battleships such as the "Immaculate Conception", "Our Lady of Guadalupe", and "Our Lady of Concepcion".

They were not blocked ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Among them, a cruiser boldly sailed towards the Nanhua Fleet. After being intercepted by the Nanhua cruiser, they brought a message from the Spanish admiral, that is, they asked the two armies to fight in the southwest. Battle in the sea.

"Southwest waters?" A staff officer said, "The ocean currents are turbulent and there are dense reefs. The Spaniards want to use the situation there to attack us!"

The Nanhua Army has a hydrological survey unit, which has long since found out the wind direction, ocean currents and hydrological conditions in important sea areas.

"What are you afraid of!" After Yan Zhang received the report, he was brave enough to agree to fight Spain there, but he ordered all ships to be careful to avoid being drawn into dangerous waters by the enemy fleet to fight.

"We'll follow them and start the war when the situation is favorable!" Yan Zhang had a good plan.

So the two major fleets headed for the southwest waters one after the other. After arriving in the sea area, the Spanish fleet did not stop, but kept advancing, heading towards the depths of the Atlantic Ocean without looking back.

The Nanhua Fleet followed, and followed, feeling more and more wrong, Yan Zhang suddenly woke up: "Damn it, these **** want to escape!" 2084/10469573
